Welcome to the uber-private world of DeepDene, a Gilded Age country estate minutes from the center of Chestnut Hill. Built in 1890 for a railroad magnate, DeepDene shares its unusual name with the notorious 104+carat brilliant yellow diamond, generally believed to be the largest irradiated diamond in the world. While it remains a mystery if the diamond was named for the estate or vice-versa, one thing is perfectly clear. This coveted property is more than just a luxury home. Surrounded by its own 3.7 acre manicured private park, DeepDene is found at the end of an exclusive private road, behind iron gates and a long winding driveway, just beyond the city limits. Recently completed extensive restorations to the entire estate including its fairytale-like carriage house are executed in a classic, elegant palette integrating the best modern technology, products & finishes. These include: New custom kitchen & pantry with top of the line Viking & SubZero appliances, quartzite countertops and Calacatta marble backsplash. 8.5 newly finished bathrooms, including dual primary en-suites with heated marble floors, one-piece Toto smart toilets and custom frameless glass showers. New high-efficiency HVAC systems controlled by a Smart-home App. New walk-in dressing room with marble island & custom built-ins. New 2, 000+ sf sandstone style entertainment terrace accessible from multiple rooms for easy indoor/outdoor entertaining. The list goes on and on… DeepDene appeals to both sides of your soul. The ultra-refined luxury of a 7 bedroom, 8.5 bath home with a full-size gym, sauna, massage/yoga room and a primary suite inspired by a famous hotel are just the beginning. There’s a hidden “speakeasy” behind the library fireplace and a century-old wine vault & safe-room next to the elevator. You would be forgiven for believing you walked into a Ralph Lauren ad when you see the 4000+ sq. ft. Carriage House circa 1900, designed by the esteemed firm of Cope and Stewardson with its mahogany stables and all the amenities, including its soaring “party barn, ” rustic chandeliers and hay loft. It’s a rare home that can be both impressive and welcoming all at the same time. This is that winning combination! The bottom line is—this is a turn key solution, just move in & enjoy your life. The hard works already been done!
